ATTACK COLLARED BY NOTTS

NEW ZEALANDERS IN ENGLAND HOME TEAM’S VIGOROUS BATTING United Press Association—By Electrio Telegraph —Copyright LONDON, June 22. Running up 454 for five wickets in their second Innings, Notts quickly deprived the New Zealanders of any chance of victory. The match ended in a draw. Gunn made 149 not out, Hardstaff 110, KKeeton 75, Knowles 57 and Voce 52 not out. The only New Zealand bowler to meet with even moderate success was Dunning, with three for 129. Notts took full advantage of the perfect pitch, though the bowling was steady enough to keep the scoring rate moderate. Keeton and Knowles passed the century in a partnership that lasted until after lunch. Hardstaff and Gunn built on to this advantageous opening, a fine partnership taking the score to 199 for the fourth wicket. Hardstaff’s batting suggested that the bowlers will find him difficult to dislodge on a good wicket in the test. Cowie again bowled with great heart, but an unhelpful wicket minimised his menace. Dunning pegged away determinedly and he might easily have had more success, several times beating the bat but missing the stumps. The Tindlll-Moloney combination again captured wickets. Tindill’s work was very steady, there being only two byes in the first three hundred. Neither Roberts nor Weir appeared to cause the batsmen undue worry, though a difficult catch was missed in the slips off the latter. In the absence of Vivian and Gallichan, Donnelly shouldered left hand slow bowling fairly Inexpensively, till the wood was laid on late in the day by Gunn and Voce. New Zealand faced a difficult task in dismissing a strong batting side on a beautiful wicket. Nevertheless their performance in this match is an encouragement for the test.
